THE ART OF HUMMINGBIRDS, August 2015, led by GREG BASCO - On this first ever trip, I share the secrets behind my well-known natural-looking multiple flash hummingbird images so that you can capture your own on this trip and wherever you travel in the future. But, doing the same thing over and over can get stale. I've been innovating lately and, in addition to my standard multiple-flash approach, will share some new techniques for capturing hummingbird images that stand out from the crowd!

ECUADOR - HUMMINGBIRDS & HERPS, MARCH 2016, LED BY GREG BASCO & LUCAS BUSTAMANTE - Led by Greg Basco and the best reptile and amphibian photographer in Ecuador, Lucas Bustamante, this trip offers you a number of stunning photo subjects to photograph. We'll put Greg's well-known multi-flash hummingbird technique to use on Ecuador's amazing hummingbird species, and we'll also work on a number of innovative techniques for photographing the mind-blowing frog, lizard, and snake species found in two different areas of the country.
